Based on the acclaimed graphic novel by Greg Rucka and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood (LOVE & BASKETBALL, BEYOND THE LIGHTS), THE OLD GUARD is a gritty, grounded, action-packed story that shows living forever is harder than it looks. Theron is on double duty for this one, as she is also producing the flick alongside David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Don Granger, AJ Dix, Beth Kono and Marc Evans.

Theron does not shy away from her kick-ass roles, having previously starred as Lorraine Broughton for David Leitch‘s ATOMIC BLONDE, an adaptation of of the Oni Press graphic novel series The Coldest City by Anthony Johnston with art by Sam Hart. In the film, Theron performed some super fight sequences, so we are expecting great things from her as Andy.
